We report on an experiment in which subjects choose actions in strategic games with either strategic complements or substitutes against a granny, a game theorist or other subjects. The games are selected in order to test predictions on the comparative statics of equilibrium with respect to changes in strategic ambiguity. We find that subjects face higher ambiguity while playing against the gran...

We are analysing the implications of music composition through programming, in particular the possibilities and limitations of tracing the composition process through computer artefacts. The analysis is attached to the case study of a sound installation. This work was realised using a new programming system which is briefly introduced. Through these observations we are probing and adjusting a m...

in this work facile sol-gel (pechni) method has been successfully established to synthesize zn4b6o13 nanocrystals which have cubic crystals with lattice parameter: a =7.48 a. the structure and morphology of the obtained material were studied by x-ray diffraction (xrd), infrared spectra (ir), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and photoluminescence analysis. the experimental results show a band ...

Background: Although theory explains the development of illness script, it does not provide answers how medical students develop scripts in their learning. To fill the knowledge gap of developing illness script in medical students and interns, this study aimed to investigate the impact of educational strategies inspired by theory in the development of illness scripts.    Methods: A total of 15...

Introduction: Frequency of breakfast consumption has declined in the last half century. This meal is ignored by children and adolescents. This study was aimed at determining the effect of a training program based on theory of planned behavior on promotion of breakfast consumption in students. Methods: This interventional quasi-experimental study was carried out in Bandar Abbas in 2011 on 88 mid...

the present study investigates the performance and relative accuracy of four lattice-hole theory based equations of state in modeling and correlating the liquid density of pure refrigerants. following the gathering of a database of 5740 experimental liquid density datapoints of 36 pure refrigerants belonging to five different categories including cfcs, hcfcs, pfcs, hfcs and hfes, ranging from 6...

This article aims to study lease and hiring contract in the Iranian-Islamic setting and analyze the asymmetric information problem in these contracts. For doing this, we study the characteristics of lease and hiring contracts in Iran (real world experimental characteristics that recognized in other studies), using library method, then we mathematically model different aspects of asymmetric info...
